Day 12:

Today, I am sick as a dog, and have been SO grateful for the leftover soup from yesterday!  I'm also making one of my VERY favorite dinners from my childhood just because it sounds cozy and wonderful: Hot Chicken Salad.

My first memory of this dish was from high school.  My mom had whipped it up, put it in the oven, and then had to run out the door for a few hours.  She asked me to take it out of the oven in 30 minutes and then left.  Being the responsible teen that I was, I promptly forgot.  Two hours later, my mom came in and asked how the dinner was.  Jaw dropping, I ran up to the kitchen, threw open the oven and grabbed out the evidence of my shirking.  It was actually amazing.  The edges were crispy, in a very fantastic way, and the whole thing was just divine; the most forgiving meal you can ever prepare.  Plus, for my experiment, it has a lot of ingredients that I can get out of my food storage!


In other news, my sweet ministering sister came over to visit me today.  Knowing of my challenge, she brought me tons of food storage recipes to try.  I can't wait to give some of them a go!  This is the one I'm hoping to do in the morning:


I'll report back with pics to let you guys know how it all went!
